Abstract

An improved algorithm and technique for use in interactive graphics is disclosed. The new algorithm works by keeping three values in fast, memoryless pixel local storage for coverage counting (store the current coverage count at the pixel being covered), original framebuffer color (stores the color that was in the framebuffer at the pixel being covered immediately before the current path starts rendering), and the path ID (stores the unique ID of the last path to be drawn at the current pixel). The framebuffer is accessed from a fourth, texture-backed, pixel local storage plane.
